I can't the elements removed from the Awesome Bar

For the latest versions of Firefox, I always wanting to old URLS will appear in the Awesome bar. No matter what I try to delete them, they do not disappear. I did everything suggested (delete history, erase cache, reload with a version of Firefox, etc) - no luck. I also notice that when I start to type an address, there is no drop-down list that appears for me to be able to delete entries.

I'm sure there's some semisimple difficulty, I just haven't stumble on it and after months of this, I have given up trying to understand me.

You can check for problems with the database places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.

  • Cannot remove the awesome bar history

    So I completely wiped my browser history, several times. But I always /all/ of my story in the awesome bar, which is just super aggravating. What can I do?

    You can check for problems with the database places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.

    You can delete all data stored in Firefox with a specific area through "Forget this Site" in the context menu of a history entry ("" history > view history "or" view > sidebar > History "") or via the subject: permissions page.

    Using "Forget this Site" will delete all data stored in Firefox in this area as bookmarks, cookies, words of past, cache, history, and exceptions, so be careful and if you have a password or other data from that domain you don't want to lose then check that back up these data or make a comment.

    You can't recover from this "forget" unless you have a backup of the files involved.

    It has no lasting effect, so if come back you on such a 'forgotten' site, then the data of this Web site will be saved once more.

  • How can I erase the Awesome bar?

    I followed the instructions provided by Mozilla.
    IT DOES NOT WORK.
    No matter what I do, if I type in the bar location... also called the address bar... also called the Awesome bar... should have been called the useless bar... old sites Web will show that I have not visited in more than a year.
    Even if I clear my history every day.
    Yes, I select AS my calendar.
    Yes, I click AND DOWNLOAD the HISTORY of NAVIGATION.
    Still, whenever I type anything in the bar of Useless, old sites Web is suggested.
    How can I erase this and never make it do this again?
    How can I get the guy who designed the bar pulled Useless?

    (On another note... why I have to provide a password of eight letters at least 1 number? If I want a weak password, MY risk. What do you care? Also, if every Web site requests a password of eight letters at least 1 number you are actually makes it easier to hack because I am limited on coming up with new personal passwords for me since I have to remember and you make it so complicated.)

  • How can I customize the "awesome bar"?

    I just got the upgrade forced to 12 Firefox, and while I don't like for much of the new interface, I can cope. That said, I can't stand the changes to the "awesome bar". It's very distracting that it appears highlighted whenever I have my cursor on it, and I don't like that all of the text other than the main domain (e.g. mozilla.org) is grey. Is it possible to return to normal?

    You'd be able to get almost all the customizations you want via Add-ons and personas. There is a good post about that and more here.

  • How can I turn off default 1 search result in the awesome bar?

    Since the release of 43, it seems that the Awesome bar fills the first result as a generic 'visit' or 'Search' for anything typed in the bar. It's very frustrating because I know where I want to go, and my search history used to fill specific sites, I went to. This new feature to the Awesome Bar takes you is a generic search engine default search, or right on the first page for a specific site.

    For example, it may be a forum page that I regularly to. and in the latest Firefox would fill this page first in my results, which allows a fast navigation. However, the most recent update makes it do that the first result is a query to perform a generic search for what I typed in, or at best to take me to the first page of the site in question, make me have to either type the URL complete, favorite every page ever, I want to navigate to and just use bookmarks now or , or cross my fingers and pray that they default 1 result in the Awesome bar accurately reflects my wishes of navigation (which he never does).

    Is it possible to either:

    1. find the process that causes this 1 default result in the Awesome bar and disable/delete, preferably with extreme prejudice.

    2 prevent the features of Firefox that interacts with a browser default search?

    In its current form, I deliberately ignore the 1st result of the Awesome Bar, because it never fulfills what I want. Specifically, it will fill never I don't want things.

    Hi Danon72.

    To disable the 'Visit' item in the list, please edit the preference browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete in The editor of Configuration of Firefox to false.

  • How can I get the Awesome Bar Google search parameters?

    For example: if I type "site:support.mozilla.org browser" in Google or even some new-tab for Firefox addons, I get a page with the Google search results on this site for that keyword. If I type the same line in the "Awesome Bar", I get an error page.

  • The awesome bar in FF4 does not display the URL of the previous page visited the current.

    The awesome bar to view the URL of the visited page, given that the upgrade to 4 FF is no longer the fact. It displays the URL of the first page visited say a goodle search so if you navigate to another page or return to the search results, it continues to display the URL of the old or none at all.

    A few possible causes. There may be an add-on that is not compatible with Firefox 4 the cause. For details of how to troubleshoot see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

    Now, close Firefox and places.sqlite and rename it places.sqlite.old. If there is a file called places.sqlite - journal you can remove it. Restart Firefox and it will recreate this file, import bookmarks from a backup, if browsing history will be lost. Now check if the URL changes.

  • The Awesome Bar does not work since 11/16/16, FF 50.0

    The version of FF 50.0 Win10 build 1607 (latest updates)

    The Awesome Bar has stopped working (aka the search bar, the URL bar).

    If I start typing in there, the drop-down list box appears, I select an element, but FF does nothing. If I hit , nothing happens.

    It's the same if I 'type of hand' in the URL, or paste a URL in the impressive bar.

    There is no question by navigating from the Favorites, bookmarks, or by clicking on the URL in a web page, it is only the awesome bar that is not working.

  • Stop Search Suggestions in the awesome bar

    Google is my default search engine. I followed the instructions to disable Search Suggestions in Firefox 13. Unfortunately, this seems to work if I search from the search bar. If I am looking in the awesome bar, that I prefer, search suggestions are always displayed. Prevent search suggestions from the Awesome Bar as well? I can do this in Google Chrome - please tell me I can do it in Firefox!

    The way to do it in Chrome is enter the following URL in your default search engine:

    https://www.Google.com/search?hl=en & full = 0 & site = webhp & q = %s & btnK = Google + Search

    I don't see a way to do this in Firefox 13. BTW, the above URL also prevents Google Autocomplete and Google instant.

    OK, thanks for the clarification - you can enter Subject: config in the locationbar and search for the preference named keyword.url. DoubleClick and assign https://www.google.com/search?hl=en & full = 0 & site = webhp & q = - this should also redirect searches from the address bar of firefox version of google without suggestions.

  • I have updated, but how do the awesome bar and the line at home to show?

    Miss me the line having the awesome bar and the Home icon.
    How can I get this crucial line?

    I've updated to the new version and here is the result.

    Make sure the toolbars like the toolbar 'Navigation' and the 'personal bar' are visible: "view > toolbars".

    • Is he missing elements then open the window customize via "view > toolbars > customize" or "Firefox > Options > toolbars»
    • If a missing element is located in the toolbar palette and then bring her back in the window customize the toolbar
    • If you don't see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette, then click on the "Restore default" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

  • The awesome bar does not work as it should?

    When I typed in a Word, for ex, 'space', initially FF would take me to 'google search' with all the options for 'space' in this research.
    Suddenly, 'parola' butted and my searches are redirected to this place.
    I scoured the forums etc. They suggested "Subject: config","keyword.url". "" Then right click and the setting on 'reset'.
    Well, when I do this, my "reset" function is not available. It is faded. Then I did a right click on 'modify' and type in the option only available in the forums etc to google search:

    "http://www.google.com/ig?ie=UTF-8 & oe = UTF-8 & hl = in & aig = 0 & reason = 1.

    From there, when I go to the awesome bar and enter ' thespace', it does me not this 'google search' page, but need me either on my own "igoogle" page, or if I register on igoogle, it takes me to a regular google home page.

    Then, I want what I searched in the search box of the google and igoogle with all available 'google' search results. "',But the search box is empty.

    What to do now?

    I hope I'm clear on the issue. That I couldn't find in the forums/help pages.

    Thank you for your help.

    PS. Vista, Newest version update of FF (4).

    You can change the pref keyword. URL on the topic: config page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or "Browse by name" Google.
